Highlights
Pet care experience
Lorain County Pet Care
*covered by both Rover and personal PCI insurance! My name is Kimberly and I am currently 31 years old - I have been taking care of all kinds of animals since I was a child, however I moved to working with dogs professionally at the age of 20; I have enjoyed every moment since! My husband & I recently moved to Elyria however we previously lived in Cleveland Heights where I worked at a local dog boarding and daycare center where I was responsible for the well being of upwards of 35-50 dogs, ensuring each and every dog was able to relax in their new environment, providing all meals and medication as well as ensuring the safety of all social dogs in a group together. This position gave me the most valuable knowledge possible and has solidified my idea that stress free care is one of the most important things I can do for the pets entrusted in my care. My husband & I currently own 3 cats and they are all our world and best friends; while I love all animals, dogs are my true passion however and I have extensive experience with many different breeds, sizes, temperaments, energy drives, worker breeds/service dogs, etc. I am also able to provide you with the comfort of knowing all medications and health needs will be met, as I have plenty of experience providing care for senior/health compromised dogs that follow a strict medication/feeding schedule. I am very comfortable with administering shots, pill shoots as well as old fashion 'pilling' a dog with some PB!

Safety, trust & environment
If I am in your home you can find peace in the fact that not only your pets will be safe but your home is protected as well! I treat others homes just as sacredly as ones pets, and I am more than happy to take in all mail/packages, water your plants, be home for any needed maintenance or to alert you of any home changes or emergencies. I also have extensive knowledge of what to do for all weather emergencies as well such as tornado warnings, winter storms, heavy flooding etc and you can rest easy on your vacation knowing that your pet is safe and all steps are taken to ensure your home and pet will stay protected!
Ratings and reviews
The only person I contacted that responded, was available and showed up to meet my pup on the date we set. My girl loved her immediately and I felt very comfortable leaving her for the day while I got my infusion. Being anxiety free for that is so important and her obvious love for dogs made that possible. She did everything I asked, including sneaking out of the back door when she had to leave for a little bit, so my dog wouldn't have separation anxiety. Very sweet and left the cutest little polaroid picture! Would gladly hire her again if she's available for my next one.
I always feel confident leaving my dog in Kim’s care when I’m out of town. She’s communicative and makes sure I’m in the loop on everything going on.
Kimberly is the best dogsitter ever!
Kimberly is an absolutely fantastic pet sitter. I feel totally comfortable leaving my pup with her, and when I come home he’s always happy and well-cared for!
Kimberly was fantastic! Our animals loved her instantly, on point communication, pictures sent and zero mess! Highly recommend and can’t wait to use her again soon!
Kimberly is phenomenal. She was consistently in touch and sent tons of photos so I never had to worry about what was going on in my absence. It was obvious my senior dog was happy and well cared for while I was gone, which made it easier for me to relax and enjoy the time away. Can’t wait to rebook!

Schedule
After the pandemic and working an office job remotely for 2 years, I have stepped aside from that life and am looking to focus more on spending my days enjoying my passion: taking care of your pup and creating a relaxed, stress free experience for you both. I have a background in customer service so bringing you peace of mind, going above and beyond, and creating special experiences is something im happy to be able to do! This is my full time position so you don't need to worry about my schedule pulling me in different directions; there is extra security with my dog experienced/dog obsessed husband being close by and able to help in an kind of possible emergency that might keep me from my usual schedule. I treat house-sitting as if I am working from home and I will not be away from your pets for longer than 4-5hrs at a time, and am happy to/prefer to spend the night so your pet/home aren't alone or unsupervised.
